Yamaha MusicCast and WXC-50


Hi. Another bug report on MusicCast. Streaming via Deezer and MusicCast works poorly since a week back. This applies to both albums and playlists and is linked to the Yamaha WXC-50. I have two devices and it is the same problem on both of them. Some songs are not played at all and the streaming stops completely. You have to step on until any song that is accepted starts.

Important to mention is that streaming works without any problems on my Yamaha RX-A3080 receiver. Please note that this applies to MusicCast directly in the WXC-50 devices. Streaming via Deezer's native app from my IPad and Bluetooth/Airplay to the devices works without interruption.

Also tested to stream the songs that are not accepted by Deezer via Spotify in the same devices via MusicCast and it also works without any interference.

Please try and find a solution to this issue though none of these devices have had failures like this earlier.

To Leonidia at Deezer. This link is a perfect example of a song that will not be played/streamed with my Yamaha WXC-50 units within MusicCast. This song is played without any problems within my Yamaha RX-A3080  https://dzr.page.link/q6ZjqmwJJVSTv3Sw9
It would be very helpful if you could pass this information to your technicians. It’s only an example of songs of all that’s not played since a week ago.

Edit: have sent a personal message to you wishing you to take care of this issue with your developers // Magnus

Hi ​@Sensei1 

Have you tried to unlink and link again your MusicCast (both devices) from/to Deezer to see if that helps to solve the issue? 

Let us know how it goes!

Hello.

Just tried to do this on both of my devices. Logged them out of MusicCast from Deezer's service, restarted both devices, logged in to Deezer again and tried to play a specific other song that I know works on my Yamaha RX-A3080. Result: Does not work.
